drops of heaven

Posted May 21, 2026 · 9 lines · 5 critiques

A sense of calm, of hope and wonder

The silent calls, the beauty under

The laps that come between each breath

They glaze and shine into the depths

A single drop becomes another

And then a few to make a river

It settles in a pool of splendour

And sings the song of those most tender

"just a bit confused as to what the "laps" are. Do you mean lapses? This is lyrical, yet slightly ambiguous, I'm thinking that the "river" makes happy noises to settle in a back pool, and croon to those children of the m…"

"indulgence of death. "Till her very last breath." It seems to me, that you have rejected her; "Death." That you have flirted with her and choose to stay here, with us. I too, think you have talent. Keep writing. ~ Geeze…"

on When I'm With You My Worries Fade Away from @scribbler
"I am with lavender as to the apparent length of this poem. But the length is Only apparent. I think it is the lack of stanzas which presents the reader with a visual "word wall" which makes it seem long. Now the stanzas…"

"Hello, Flower Girl, At first read, I was thinking this was a bit too long. And then I read it a few more times. I don't know what would be taken out. It all escalates to that simple, but powerful last line, which sounds…"

For Tomorrow
"Such fragility, such patience. We wait and wait until the shadows pull us in. In the blink of an eye, we become a memory. Forgotten by many, savoured by few. But those few cherish and levitate from our presence, collecting their tears into jars to be saved for us, building into a shrine of comfort and gratefulness. Though their shattered souls may be raw and exposed, we ripple through their currents, guiding them to be a better person tomorrow. No matter the time or distance, the clock continues to tick on, so embracing the love and warmth is all we have."
